Some #AMHP students have been using #HeDiedWaiting on their course. They made #PledgeForTim and I am so heartened by them. Please do read the thread.

“Not seeing the person just as ill  - making sure I include the family to find out their history /who they are.” 1/
“Involving the person in the decision  - making sure they have enough information and resources”

“Not losing the individuality of the the person - a willingness to stand in their shoes”

“ A person centred approach - talking to others “
2/
“Always asking the family what the person is like when they are well”

‘Giving quality time to the assessment - making sure I explain”

“To listen, to hear, to understand”

“Know the power of language - if that person is quirky or has ambitions make sure I say who they are”
3/
“Never lose kindness and respect - collaborate with the person”

“Give the time needed to explain”

“Always remember it is someone’s son, or daughter or parent”

These #PledgeForTim are packed with #values.

Had more amazing feedback from readers of #HeDiedWaiting. Unanimous that the book should be used in the education of social work, mental health, and health and social care students. I agree. Can you help me achieve this? RTs appreciated. 1/
I have some postcards (set 2) with quotes from #HeDiedWaiting to giveaway. See learningsocialworker.com for details. These are great for supporting values-based discussions. A teaching resource for social work/nursing PEs, mentors, lecturers using the postcards is coming soon. 2/
Thanks to the generosity of people I have some sponsored copies of #HeDiedWaiting to gift to people. Don’t be shy-if you,or someone you know, would benefit from a copy but cannot afford to buy please DM me. Please RT 3/

Had a lovely email from a reader: ‘I have just read your book. I couldn’t put it down and will probably read all or parts of it again in the future. #HeDiedWaiting 1/
If only I had known how many others shared my experience it would have made a difference. It felt a lonely and shameful place at the time. 2/
I was overwhelmed with sadness for our losses and those of so many more. But also beyond taken with your bravery in writing #HeDiedWaiting and articulating what I feel on so many levels. 3/
